| | | | | | | | When their title corporate sponsor Hacketts of Newtownsaville left them last year, some said it was the end for the Belfast World Pong Championships. But exciting news came recently when the Arts Council and Belfast City Council teamed up to allocate their entire arts budget for the next three years. Bad news for the Ulster Orchestra and the Waterfront Hall but good news for the Pong fraternity of Ulster!
For those new to the Championship – the idea is simple. Two Bats (electronic) and One Ball (electronic) do battle (in Meatspace) to see who will become the Pong Master. With live commentary from Richard West and Sir Patrick Bloomer this promises to be a spectacular year. Cinilingus and Digital Arts Studios have come together as AV sponsors for this event and will be providing state of the art camera and projection intrusion and analysis of the competitor’s eyes, sweat glands and bladder functions.
Only 32 places are available for playing so book early through the Film Festival Box Office or email: stephen@belfastfilmfestival.org.
